Overdue: Latest works…
Wednesday, February 24th, 2010
Oh man. I win the award for the least amount of blog posts. I plan on changing that in the future.
Here are my latest works and an update on what is going on with me.
SAIT’s New Media Production and Design Showcase Poster.
At the end of the New Media Production and Design program, SAIT holds essentially a portfolio showcase in April to display the works of the graduating student body… which includes myself this year. They hold a competition where each student creates a poster for the event and everyone votes on it. This was my submission. Hopefully we find out soon who won the vote!
I got my latest roll of film back! I have a Canon AE-1 Program 35mm Camera (I am actually holding that camera my little photo on the main page of this site!) and I have been using it in place of using my DLSR (I have a Canon 30d, 17-85mm f/4-5.6 and 70-200mm IS f/2.8 for those who care). I donno there is just this feel and touch that film has that digital doesn’t have. AND PLUS there is nothing better than dropping off a roll of film and then waiting for it to be developed! It’s like Christmas picking it up! haha!
Here are some favorites from my latest roll. 800iso. (forgive the crappy scanning quality… i didn’t have time to scan them at super high dpi)
I met Elyse at a small house show a few weeks ago and got together for coffee last week… which turned into us wandering around Marda Loop taking photos together. Thus the last two photos above resulted. She’s a local photographer here in Calgary, and I have a lot to learn from her about the photography industry. I learned so much during that get together for coffee alone! CHECK HER STUFF OUT YO! http://elysebouvier.com/
Anyways. I think that is all for now. Life is a bit crazy right now! I applied just over a week ago to ACAD for their first years program and I am currently in the process of submitting my portfolio to Concordia in Montreal for their Design program. As well as working on school projects, free lance work, and trying to create portfolio quality pieces for that Concordia portfolio and for that showcase in April. It’s chaotic but I enjoy it. Gotta chase after that dream!
In other subjects.
I am currently reading: Donald Miller – A Million Miles in a Thousand Years: What I Learned While Editing My Life. I just picked it up late last night (Yay for the library being open late) and I am almost half way through! Brilliant book. Definitely puts things in a whole new perspective. I cannot wait to finish it… probably tonight.
I am currently listening to: Mumford & Sons – The Cave. I want these boys so badly to tour near Calgary. When I say near I mean Vancouver or Seattle. I will drive many many hours to see them! haha my friends and I have grand plans if it were to happen! Oh man I hope it does.
Have a lovely night. I must return to focusing on the Canada vs. Russia hockey game on right now. GO CANADA! 7-3 for Canada so far! Lets go boys!
